Rarity fighting giant crabs has been a thing for a while now. I had considered making my own interpretation, but never got around working on it. However, this week the *CutieArtCrusaders had a fantastic episode full of crab battle, and after that I couldn't resist the urge to give it a shot. So, my livestream yesterday started with this painting, which captures the epic adventures of Rarity in the land of crustaceans from yet another angle.

This painting was a lot of fun to work on. I'd made a pencil sketch the afternoon before the stream to get a basic idea of the composition. That way I was able to get quickly into the painting during the livestream. Rarity's weapons of choice are a set of lobster forks, as they were the most fitting instruments I could think of to slay large sea creatures.

A top down view is indeed interesting, as someone below mentioned. But I could also see why it's not as frequently done as other poses, as it looks harder to get the perspective and proportions right.However, I think you've done all of that well, and I also have to say that I like the long shadows you gave everything, as if the entire thing happened in the late evening.
